Im crying.
She was getting so big and beautiful and then the wind came. 😩 Can I just prop her like this?! Are her air roots okay to just put straight into soil or should I keep her in water first?
5” pot with drainage

Oh no, Ariell!
Look on the bright side, now you have TWO gorgeous plants!
You can do soil or water proping here as the aerial roots look great! They will adapt to soil roots, though propping in water would give you the ability to keep an eye on the progress a bit better. I got my standard Burle as a prop and it's been in water. Here she is for reference as far as how much stem there is and how deep she is in water. The brown roots were aerials and you can see one is growing a water root, then you can see the new, white water root.
